Does the saying "dress warmly in spring and freeze in autumn" make sense?
The ancient methods of health preservation and disease prevention were mainly aimed at middle-aged and elderly people and patients. Their physical ability to adapt to external temperature changes has weakened, but the weather changes dramatically in our country. Therefore, it is definitely inappropriate to generalize "dress warmly in spring and freeze in autumn" without restrictions.
There should be a "limit" to freezing in autumn and wearing more in spring.
Experts explained that "dress warmly in spring and freeze in autumn" is a folk health proverb, which has certain scientific basis from the perspective of climatology. Spring and autumn are both transitional seasons, but there are differences between them. In terms of temperature changes, spring tends to warm up. The warming speed indoors cannot keep up with outdoors, so although it is hot outside in spring, it is relatively cooler when you enter indoors. On the contrary, autumn is a cooling season. Although the outdoor temperature drops, the indoor temperature is still relatively hot. Appropriately wearing less clothing in autumn can enhance cold resistance and immunity, which helps to get through winter.
Citizens' understanding of "freezing in autumn" should not be limited to "not adding clothes hastily", but should be understood in a broader sense. For example, they should strengthen cold-resistant exercises, such as washing face and nose with cold water frequently.
